Weston, Westport Announce Cavalry Road Bridge Construction Delays
Towns of Weston and WestportThe Towns of Westport and Weston announce that the Cavalry Road Bridge Replacement Project has suffered delays related to various aspects of the construction that are beyond the Towns' control.
The Project calls for the existing two-span bridge to be replaced with a single, longer span structure that will provide more hydraulic conveyance and reduce future maintenance needs.
The contractor experienced complications associated with installing the proposed bridge deep foundations. This task required additional testing to ensure the proposed bridge is adequately supported.
In addition, the process of installing large prefabricated concrete girders has taken longer than expected. The bridge is located on a rural local road and installing the girders with the least amount of impacts to the residents and the regulated waterway is a high priority.
The Towns continue to collaborate with the Contractor and will make every effort to complete the project as soon as possible.
We apologize for the inconvenience, and thank you for your patience.
